Sport writer's contempt for Rusty Old Man thinly veiled

Sage Rosenfels was traded to the NY Giants.

Why is this important?  Well, two years ago, he played for the Houston Texans and did a decent job.  Then he was traded to Minnesota, where he thought he had a shot at the top position.  This thought faded the minute that they acquired Favre, or, as stated by Barry Wilner, "After an offseason of working out and learning the system, however, Rosenfels’ big shot was dashed when Favre waltzed in to take over."

I love it.

And then there was one

Tavaris Jackson went down during today's practice with the Vikings. It appears to have been a leg injury. So far, there is no status update as to when he will return. That leaves them with Sage Rosenfels (or 1).

On a related note, here is a personal interest story about a not very bright Vikings fan. Pretty sure that there are plenty of Jets fans who could have warned him.
